Gold, silver, and Bitcoin have experienced extraordinary volatility in recent months — but what's really driving these dramatic moves, and where might things go from here?
In this episode, Progressive's Jeremy McKeown digs into the wild price action across precious metals and digital assets, exploring whether the debasement trade is still intact or whether something fundamental has shifted.
Gold surged over 50% before pulling back, silver nearly tripled at its peak, and Bitcoin more than halved from its highs — all within a matter of months. To make sense of it all, Jeremy is joined by two long-term advocates of so-called "outside money": Dominic Frisby (Flying Frisby Substack), author and commentator on Bitcoin and gold, and Charlie Morris of ByteTree, founder of the BOLD (Bitcoin & Gold) Fund, which recently launched on the London Stock Exchange.
Together, they explore the key questions: What sparked this volatility spike? Has the newly nominated Fed Chair changed the game? Could AI or quantum computing pose a real threat to Bitcoin? And is Bitcoin still overvalued even at current prices?
A timely and wide-ranging conversation — we hope you find it both informative and entertaining.
